REDES Trial Summary

This trial aims to find the best way to get more Latino adults and their networks vaccinated against COVID-19. It will compare the effectiveness of motivational interviewing with just giving information about the vaccine.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for Latino adults living in Maryland who are at least 18 years old and have had a COVID-19 vaccine or booster in the past year. Their friends and connections, also Latino and over 18, can join if they haven't been vaccinated or boosted within the last year. People who've already been in this study or can't consent aren't eligible.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests whether teaching motivational interviewing to Latino adults helps their friends get vaccinated against COVID-19 more than just giving out vaccine information. It compares vaccination rates between those trained in this technique and those who only received info.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial focuses on educational interventions rather than medical treatments, there are no direct side effects from medications being tested. However, participants may experience stress or discomfort during interviews.
